NTelos Gets Apple IPhone, But T-Mobile Still Doesn't Offer It

nTelos Wireless announced today that it will begin offering iPhone 4S and iPhone 4 to customers on April 20th. iPhone 4S will be available starting at $149.99 for the 16GB model, $249.99 for the 32GB model and $349.99 for the 64GB model. iPhone 4 will be available for only $49.99.

So little nTelos Wireless can have the iPhone, but T-Mobile is not able to get it. After the failed merger with AT&T, T-Mobile is the only major carrier in the United States not offering the Apple iPhone. The main problem is that the current iPhone doesn't work on the T-Mobile infrastructure. T-Mobile is now investing in LTE to be ready for the iPhone 5 LTE 4G coming later this year.

"As a wireless service provider well-known for delivering the best value in wireless, we're pleased to offer the amazing new iPhone 4S to our customers," said Jim Hyde, president and CEO for nTelos Wireless. "iPhone 4S offers an abundance of new features, and with our industry-leading, nationwide smartphone plans, customers can now enjoy the nation’s best networks for less."

nTelos Wireless retail stores will open early, at 7:00 AM on Friday, April 20th, so customers can take advantage of the best value in wireless. Nationwide smartphone plans start at just $79.99 and include unlimited data and messaging. Plus, families can save with the industry’s best value unlimited everything smartphone rate plans, which start at just $139.99 a month for two lines.
